   Extractions: Get help in person or on the phone at the Noble Science Library (965-7607) or the Hayden Library (965-6164, #5) Most of the library resources you will need to use will require you to sign in for off campus access. You will do this using your last name, your student ID #, and a library PIN. Setting your PIN From the ASU Libraries web page (http://www.asu.edu/lib) choose the "My Account" link located on the left side of the screen. Enter your name and university ID number in the appropriate boxes, and a PIN. Then click on "Display Record for Person named Above." The system will then prompt you to validate your PIN choice by giving you two boxes in which to enter your new PIN. Be sure to enter the same PIN twice. You can use any string of characters up to 30 characters long, but it is best to pick something unique that you will remember. The PIN is encrypted so that you can safely view your library record. Logging in for off campus access Whenever you use an index or database to search for a journal article, or when you need to access and electronic/online journal, you will need to use your PIN to sign in.

Site Map Education Office Many researchers work at colleges and universities, where they also teach. Industry employs research biologists in fields such as biotechnology, drug development, and food processing. Some research biologists work for the government, where they aim to protect and restore the environment, breed better crops, fight human and animal diseases, evaluate food and drug safety, or work on space missions. Researchers attend seminars, read scientific journals, and write articles to tell others about their results. Some travel to exotic places to do their work. Researchers often need help from skilled people trained in biology. Laboratory technicians help carry out experiments; they often become experts at taking field measurements, manipulating cells, handling animals and chemicals, or using sophisticated instruments. Health care workers apply biological knowledge to keep people healthy or return sick people to health. Physicians, dentists, nurses, medical technicians, and physician's assistants all must have a solid biology background. Some health care professionals work directly with patients; others may devise public health campaigns to defeat illnesses such as tuberculosis, AIDS, cancer, and heart disease. Some work to prevent the spread of rare, deadly diseases like that caused by the now infamous Ebola virus.

   Extractions: Information on careers in Life Sciences is available from many sources, including the WU Career Center in Umrath Hall. Many specific resources are listed here; in addition many professional societies can provide specific career information. Consult science journals published by professional societies for the addresses of the societies. The internet is also an interesting source of information, especially from governmental agencies and universities (see http://www.furman.edu/~snyder/careers/careers.html . Also note that information from most of the sources listed in this handbook is available in the Natural Sciences Learning Center. In addition, however, if you wish to keep this option a viable one, you should seriously consider selecting courses that will help you develop 'marketable' skills and knowledge. As just one example among many, the Laboratory on DNA Manipulation (Bio 437) provides practical experience with recombinant DNA techniques that many potential employers would consider extremely valuable. Among the many advanced courses that the Biology Department offers, ones that provide particularly good theoretical and/or practical background for various areas of biomedical research include (not in order of importance, but in the order listed in the catalog, and with those that provide relevant kinds of laboratory instruction underlined):

Microbiologist investigate the fascinating world of organisms too small to be seen with the naked eye. Although known by many different titles, a microbiologist is a scientist who studies living organisms and infectious agents many of which can only be seen with a microscope. They also study the interaction of microorganisms with people. Everyday microbiologists around the world explore, investigate and discover how these organisms, called microbes exist and affect our lives. Where Does a Microbiologist Work and With Whom?

    http://www.the-scientist.com/yr2000/may/prof_000501.html
    
    Extractions: www.bioinformatics.vt.edu The rush to sequenceand ultimately interpretthe genomes of humans and other species is driving the demand for researchers in certain key areas of the life sciences. With Rockville, Md.-based Celera Genomics Group's announcement early last month that the company had decoded 99 percent of the human genome, the need for genomic experts to mine the "rough draft" for useful sequences, and eventually proteins, seems all but certain. Gene Myers , vice president of informatics research at Celera, explains that there are two types of bioinformatics specialists: the "miners" and the "engineers." The miners have biological training and know how to extract biological information from sequenced genomes. The engineers design the mining tools; with a strong computing background, they write the genomics programs. "Both groups are in high demand," says Myers, although he adds that right now miners are more in demand.

    Extractions: Careers in Life Science There is a wide variety of different specialized fields in the biological sciences, and the list is growing rapidly. You can choose to work with a particular type or group of organisms, such as birds, viruses, or trees. You can work with a particular system within an organism, such as cells, tissues, or whole organs. You can focus on the interaction between organisms and their environment in a particular area, such as the ocean, desert, or forest. Or you could focus on the chemical, physical, or medical aspects of living things. Although many life scientists are primarily involved in research and development, and work in the laboratory or field, you may decide you want to work in another area within the science. There are many jobs available in such areas as management, administration, service work, sales, teaching, financial support, legal support, writing, illustrating, or photography. You do not have to work in a laboratory for scientific training or thinking to be useful. Some life scientists are employed by zoos, museums, aquariums, botanical gardens, schools, libraries, farms, health clubs, parks, the government, and research foundations. The following is a small sample of some of the different fields and jobs available in biology.
